One of The Largest Flyovers In D.C. History To Take Place In May

http://dcist.com/2015/02/largest_flyover_in_dc_history.php

If you happen to notice (and really, how could you not), dozens of vintage fighter jets planes will fly over the National Mall on May 8, don't worry, it doesn't mean we're under attack from some time-traveling foes. 

On Friday May 8, the Arsenal of Democracy is hosting a flyover to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the World War II victory in Europe. The flyover claims to be the largest amount of aircrafts to fly over D.C. 

According to a release, more than 70 "warbirds representing the major battles of World War II" will fly over the D.C., from the Lincoln Memorial to the Capitol, in special "historically sequenced formations." 

The whole celebration kicks off on May 7, with a victory gala celebration at the Air & Space Museum, which will feature special guests to honor "our nation's greatest generation." The flyover will occur the next day with formations and aircrafts that honor the "major battles of World War II, from Pearl Harbor through the final air offensive to defeat Japan."

You can find more information about the flyover formations and aircrafts here.
